Marie Cécile Thijs: SOLO

January 25th - March 3rd 2019

Marie Cécile Thijs decided almost 20 years ago to devote her life to photography. Or more specific: Portraits. The portraits of people, animals, flowers and food all bear her distinctive signature. Objects become characters. They move away from their daily situation, away from time and space. That provides intriguing creations, where elements like tranquility, dynamics, surrealism and sometimes also humor meet. In her work the unusual is natural, and the natural unusual.

The new solo show by Marie Cécile Thijs is the second after the successful Argentum exhibition in 2016 and her current retrospective at the Museum Jan Cunen.
